The best way to start with it is by downloading CommandBox, as we will use this for generation, scaffolding and as your integrated server. Then we can start working on our RESTFul service:
&#xa0;
mkdir myservice
box coldbox create app skeleton=rest name=MyService --installColdBox
Once you execute these CLI commands, you will have a new RESTFul service application ready to go. &#xa0;The next step is to startup an ad-hoc server and test it out:
&#xa0;
box server start --rewritesEnable
This will open a browser window with the results of your first RESTFul service:

This is a very small release that contains a single fix for those using the new server.json feature of CommandBox 3.0.0.
New Stuff
Properties weren't being read correctly from the server.json file. If you have been using server.json, please double check the format of the file here in our docs:
http://commandbox.ortusbooks.com/content/embedded_server/serverjson.html
This fix will make this functionality work as expected:
server set web.http.port=8000
server start
Upgrading
If you already have 3.0.0 then this fix only affects the CFML bits and is very easy for you to install. Simply run this command:
upgrade
If you're still on CommandBox 2.x, check out our 3.0.0 release announcement to see the cool new stuff.

In its early stages, shipping your new module isn't such a big deal. The .zip link provided by GitHub works fine for the Forgebox link, and it's not a big deal to update the entry whenever you release a new version. Once you release it and other developers actually start using and depending on your software, however, the need to automate aspects of the build and deployment process become apparent.

We are super excited to releaseCommandBox 3.0.0, our newest version of the CFML CLI, REPL, package manager, embedded server, and your source of awesome ASCII art. This is a major release of the platform that contains many new features and improvements totaling over 50 tickets! The final version is available for public consumption and we recommend all CommandBox users upgrade.
Get It
As usual, the only step required to upgrade is to replace your 'box' binary and the next time CommandBox runs, it will complete the install. If you used yum, apt-get or brew to install, just request the newest version. All the binaries are also available on ourdownload page.
If you're new to CommandBox, no worries. Just check out our installation page where we have detailed instructions for each operating system to get you up and running in about 60 seconds.
https://ortus.gitbooks.io/commandbox-documentation/content/setup/installation.html
Got It
Once you've installed the latest 3.0.0 build, let's look around at some of the new stuff:
Config Settings- Customize and configure CommandBox just for you
Modules- The 'Box is now modular and can be extended like never before
Interceptors- Hook into the internals of the CLI and build upon it
Standardized Command Packaging- Custom commands can now be packaged up as modules
Server.json- Default every aspect of the embedded server for packaging and convenience
Shortcut for Native OS Binaries- Mucho improved native shell executions from inside CommandBox
Shortcut for CFML Functions via REPL- A new sweet way to run CFML functions right from the commandline
Expressions in Command Parameters- Express yourself with new syntaxes for calling commands with dynamic inputs
Command DSL- New features to help devs writing custom commands
There is a full write up on each of these features including examples and links to the docs here in our beta release post. Please read through it if you want to dig in deeper to the new stuff.

This release brings some great features for the creation of API documents, but also the tight integration into CommandBox to allow you to generate API Docs with only CommandBox installed. Below you can learn more about our release.
This update fixes the installation so you can install DocBox into your project by running the following Command using CommandBox:
box install docbox
The code repo and readme for DocBox is here:
https://github.com/Ortus-Solutions/DocBox/
We have also released our first final 1.0.0 version of the CommandBox Docbox command. If you want to generate your API docs completely from the command line without the need to even start a server, this is for you! The CommandBox commands are stored in a separate repo as well.
https://github.com/Ortus-Solutions/commandbox-docbox/
Install the new DocBox CommandBox Commands and use them like so:
box install commandbox-docbox
box docbox generate source=/path/to/coldbox mapping=coldbox excludes=tests strategy-outputDir=/output/path strategy-projectTitle="My Docs"
Please note, these command require the latest CommandBox 3.0 beta which can be downloaded from our integration server or via the CLI as well by running the command box upgrade --latest
This should allow you to really add some spice to your build jobs with new and easier ways to generate your API docs via Docbox.

Some of them use frameworks that are no longer maintained, and many use no framework at all. A common question that I get is whether an app can be slowly converted over to ColdBox without having to rewrite everything at once. The answer is YES! ColdBox will comfortably live alongside your legacy code, giving you the chance to slowly convert it over as you get the chance.
